		Cuirassiers were generally the senior branch of the mounted arm, retaining their status as heavy cavalry - "Big men on big horses".

		Cuirassiers represent the extreme of Cybertronic "mechanical enhancement" of soldiers, as all that remains of their humanity is a (mostly) human brain, and even that is not free from modifications.
		Cuirassiers' metal bodies are sometimes covered with synthetic skin, to make them look more human -- anyone who knows what to look for can pick out a Cuirassier so disguised by his perpetual, idiot grin, and various other telltale signs.
		Eradicator Deathdroids (also known as "Juggernauts") are, technically, just another type of Cuirassier, only with no pretense left of giving a humanoid form to what remains of a human brain inside.
